Question

Match the type of adaptation given in List-I with their examples given in List-II. Select the option showing correct combination

List-I (Types of adaptation)		List-II (Examples)
1	Biochemical adaptation	p	Desert lizards
2	Behavioural adaptation	q	Deep sea fishes
3	Physiological adaptation	r	Opuntia
4	Morphological adaptation	s	Kangaroo rats

• A. 1-q, 2-r, 3-s, 4-p
• B. 1-p, 2-q, 3-r, 4-s
• C. 1-q, 2-p, 3-s, 4-r
• D. 1-s, 2-r, 3-q, 4-p

Hint:

Adaptations enable organisms to thrive in diverse environmental conditions.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

- Biochemical adaptations are observed in deep-sea fishes (q) to survive high pressure.
- Behavioral adaptations in desert lizards (p) include basking to regulate body temperature.
- Physiological adaptations, like water conservation in kangaroo rats (s), help in arid environments.
- Morphological adaptations in Opuntia(r) include spines replacing leaves to reduce water loss.
